trying to get disability benefits is less like applying for aid and more like being put on trial for a crime you didn't commit

The horror inherent in how we (don't) talk about covid anymore. Everyone is constantly getting infected at school, work and health care facilities and many of us are getting more & more disabled. At the same time, work from home jobs are disappearing and wearing a mask is stigmatized. People are sending their kids to school without even thinking about it. Workers are peer pressured not to mask. Try showing up to a job interview with a mask and see if you get the job. All that during a cost of living crisis & mass unemployment in many places. Choose between eating & avoiding brain damage. It's the black lung of our time. One of the worst tendencies of humanity on full display, on a global scale and nobody but disabled people even gives a shit anymore.

the way I can go from.normal to suicidal is crazy

there’ll be a post that’s like “i wish people did not mistreat me for X and Y reasons because i am [minority]” and some chucklefuck in the notes is always inevitably like “☝️ do not be sad. if it makes you feel any better i view you as a sex object 😌”
